Michael,
Hold it in your hands and place your hands at your heart center. Close your eyes and take 4-5 deep abdominal breaths ... breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth. Once centered in this way, ask the crystal what it's use is. When you *feel* or *hear* the answer, open your eyes and write this down. The writing gives it substance and reality.
This is what your crystal is for! :)
Peace to you,
Tami
